Needing with stress.

[Kitten-kat23]

Good morning. I'm going through a bad patch at the moment, and I'm finding I'm craving cigarettes. I haven't smoked for over 40 years. I do not really want to try gum, like a GP once suggested. Any suggestions?

Hi Kitten-kat, I’m so sorry to hear your struggling at the moment. We all know how difficult life can be at times but I honestly don’t think introducing nicotine in any form would be helpful. I was wondering if you would try meditation or mindfulness to get you through this. There are some easy exercises for this type of relaxation on line which can improve your well being. Another great thing is swimming as it’s very therapeutic being immersed in water.

Wishing you well and hope this bad patch passes soon💐💖🤗xx

I forgot to say there are quite a few apps like Calm, Headspace or Verywell Mind that are all great to help reduce stress. Take care now xx
